Command History
Usage Guidelines The recipient profile does not need to be enabled for the call-home request. The profile should specify
the e-mail address where the transport gateway is configured so that the request message can be
forwarded to the Cisco TAC and the user can receive the reply from the Smart Call Home service.
Based on the keyword specifying the type of report requested, the following information is returned in
response to the request:
• config-sanity—Information on best practices as related to the current running configuration.
• bugs-list—Known bugs in the running version and in the currently applied features.
• command-reference—Reference links to all commands in the running configuration.
• product-advisory—Product Security Incident Response Team (PSIRT) notices, End of Life (EOL)
or End of Sales (EOS) notices, or field notices (FN) that may affect devices in your network.

“show-command”
Sends the output of the specified CLI show command for analysis. The
show command must be contained in quotes (“ ”).
config-sanity

product-advisory
Specifies the type of report requested. Based on this keyword, the output of
a predetermined set of commands such as the show running-config all,
show version, and show module (standalone) or show module switch all
(VS system) commands, is sent to Cisco for analysis.
profile name (Optional) Specifies an existing profile to which the request is sent. If no
profile is specified, the request is sent to the Cisco TAC profile.
ccoid user-id (Optional) Specifies the identifier of a registered Smart Call Home user. If
a user-id is specified, the resulting analysis report is sent to the e-mail
address of the registered user. If no user-id is specified, the report is sent to
